Greetings, eDominacy

As I am out of active politics for the moment, I can focus on my other big passion in this kind of games - journalism. I decided to make a new mini series of articles that is focus on the undoubtedly most fun thing in the game - EPIC BATTLES. Why? They capture the biggest tanking, the biggest OHs, they are a great boost to economy and they offer an overview of how the game evolves over time. At the bottom I will provide the link to the RAW data.

The series will consist of three parts:

#1 Overview - the article you are reading, containing the general statistics of Epic Battles
#2 Countries - in this one we will take a look at the damage and hits done in EPIC battles on country level.
#3 Players - in this one we will take a loot at the damage and hits done in EPIC battles on player basis.

Let's go right at it with the BATTLES OVERVIEW

There were a total of 31 epic battles in the game until now. The total amount of damage done in them is more than 4 trillion. To be exact - 4,088,497,211,403 damage.

What we understand from it?

While the requirement for each next EPIC in the form of damage goes up, the amount of damage done in the battles doesn't necceserily correspond to the chronological order. Something one may assume is that as earlier we go back in the history of the game, while hits may be close, damage is supposed to be lower. For example, the first epic in the game, between Bulgaria and Albania, which we could assume will be the one with lowest damage is actually on the 23rd position.

The next thing we are going to look at is which countries had participated in the most EPIC battles

Some interesting facts that we can get from this:

• Bulgaria, Serbia and Albania are the three constant powers in the game


• Ireland was a brutally active country, considering the shorter timespan of its existence


• BiH, even though a smaller community that didn't have much luck with bonuses in all but the last reshuffles, is also really active. Especially compared to countries that had better start like Germany and Peru, who are actually in the periphery of the game.


• North Macedonia, which had probably the worst start as active community in the game and organized itself pretty late, entered the spotlight pretty hard and is a huge contender for one of the most active countries in the game.
